Some of the other potential benefits of chasteberry include:
- Alleviating PMS symptoms, such as bloating, depression, irritabiliaty and menstruation pain.
- Ease endometriosis symptoms. Taking standardized chasteberry extract for hormonal support may be helpful in easing the pain caused by this condition.
- May help regulate menstrual cycle. It may be helpful for women with irregular periods or those who are coming off of hormonal birth control.
- Promote men’s reproductive health. Despite being called “the women’s herb,” chasteberry may have benefits for men’s health as well. It can help increase urine flow, alleviate benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and turn off sexual desire.
- Chasteberry may also have benefits for other health issues, such as colds, headaches and migraines, joint conditions, eye pain, spleen problems, and inflammation and swelling. It may help prevent insect bites, alleviate acne and promote the healing of stings.
In a pot, bring 3 cups of cold water, 1-2 teaspoon of chasteberry to a simmer.
Gently decoct (simmer) for 30 minutes.
Strain out herbs and return liquid to pot.
Add if you want one spoonful of honey at a time and dissolve over very low heat until you reach desired sweetness.
Most people do not experience any side effects after using chasteberry, although some do encounter mild issues, such as dizziness, tiredness, headache and nausea, dry mouth and gastrointestinal problems. Weight gain, itching and rashes, acne, difficulty sleeping and changes in menstrual flow may also be experienced after using chasteberry. If you notice these effects, it may be better to stop using the herb immediately.
In any case you should consult with your healthcare doctor before using any herb especially if you’re taking other medications or having health problems.
